The Ship Inn is a friendly pub-restaurant located on Custom House Quay in the middle of Weymouth.

But what sets us apart?

Our Heritage. Hall and Woodhouse is one of the few remaining regional family brewers, brewing our award-winning Badger beers in Dorset and offering warm hospitality at our pubs for over 230 years.

Our Food. We use regional food partners, typically from family businesses like us, who provide us with quality ingredients that our team of talented chefs (not microwave technicians!) use to create fresh, unpretentious, seasonal dishes.

Our Hospitality. We employ nice people who think like us and enjoy the same things that we do; food & drink, and, perhaps more importantly take real pleasure in looking after people and making them happy.

Opening Times:

Daily: 10am - 11pm

Food Service Times:

Ground Floor Restaurant Midday to 9pm

Upstairs Restaurant – In the summer months, our upstairs restaurant with stunning water views is open every evening from 6pm with last orders at 9pm.

From Autumn to Easter, all food is served downstairs during the week and we open our upstairs restaurant on Friday and Saturday nights from 6pm.

(Please note, we are more than happy to accommodate guests with limited mobility downstairs, but prior booking is required.)

Leaping Legend

Introducing the newest addition to the Badger Beer family - Leaping Legend! this exciting citrus charactered beer was launched late last year in the bottle, and has since been a roaring success. Now it is available in cask, so hop into your favourite H&W pub to give it a go.

This golden brew balances the citrus character of American Amarillo hops with the more traditional British Fuggles hops for a refreshing and punchy beer.

Our Head Brewer recommends this with Spanish-style tapas, or Garlic Prawns.

Badger Beer Hampers

If you're at a loss which gift to buy the Real Ale Lover in your life... If you've got a birthday or event to buy a gift for and you've no idea where to start, why not grab one of our 'Badger Beer Hamper' boxes which contains a selection of 12 bottles of fantastic Badger Ales?

Mothering Sunday

Sunday 15th March
12:00pm to 9:00pm

We know just how special Mums are, so this year we are offering a special “thank you” when you treat your Mum to Lunch or Dinner with us on Sunday 15th March.

Mothering Sunday as a day for celebration can be traced back as far as Roman Times, so why break with tradition; show the Mother in your life how sweet she is, and we will provide a gift for her on the house.

Hall & Woodhouse Charity of the Year

Hall & Woodhouse Charity of the Year

Since 2011, Hall & Woodhouse have made a commitment to support a selected charity every 2 years. Any charity can apply to become our company charity; the key requirement being that the charity can demonstrate reasonable representation or operation across our trading region of the South of England - from Dartmoor in the West to Sevenoaks in the East.

If you would like to become our next charity you can be nominated by one of our houses or you can apply directly to Anthony Woodhouse, anthony@hall-woodhouse.co.uk using the attached form. For more information please download our charity brochure.

Our company charity is selected via nominations throughout the year, followed by a company-wide vote, which is held in March. All applicants and nominees will then be contacted to inform them if they have been successful. The winning charity will then be publicly announced in April.

The current Hall & Woodhouse Charity of the Year is Macmillan Cancer Support, who provides practical, medical and financial support and push for better cancer care (Charity Registration Number: 261017). There are two million people living with cancer today and their needs are not being fully met. By 2030 there will be four million people living with cancer, and we need to do more to help everyone affected by cancer get the support they need from their local Macmillan team.

So as a company we are grateful for the opportunity to give something back to such a great cause, as it supports so many people in our communities, and is a topic close to the hearts of many of our guests and team members. Every year we are extremely proud of the fundraising effort in our houses, and how we can make a real difference to our chosen charity.
